This is the Song That Goes Like This

I have "This is the Song That Goes Like This" from the Broadway show Spamalot stuck in my mind. Because I find it hilarious, I thought I would post the lyrics. If you google the song title and "Jessica Harris" you will find a video of a very funny rendition by a couple performing this song at a talent show.


This Is The Song That Goes Like This

Once in every show
There comes a song like this
It starts off soft and low
And ends up with a kiss
Oh where is the song
That goes like this?
Where is it? Where? Where?

A sentimental song
That casts a magic spell
They all will hum along
We'll overact like heck
For this is the song that goes like this
Yes it is! Yes it is!

I'll sing it in your face
While we both embrace
And then
We change
The key

Now we're into E!
*hem* That's awfully high for me
But as everyone can see
We should have stayed in D
For this is our song that goes like this!

I'm feeling very proud
You're singing far too loud
That's the way that this song goes
You're standing on my toes
Singing our song that goes like this!

I can't believe there's more
It's far too long, I'm sure
That's the trouble with this song
It goes on and on and on
For this is our song that is too long!

We'll be singing this til dawn
You'll wish that you weren't born
Let's stop this darn refrain
Before we go insane
For this is our song that ends like this!
